Interdisciplinary Studies

Bachelor of Arts

The interdisciplinary studies major is a rigorous academic program. The individual student assumes primary responsibility for designing the academic program. Since the interdisciplinary major is structured by the student to serve individual needs, the primary courses selected for the major invariably cross traditional departmental boundaries. This program is perfect for students who want to explore a topic or theme across several disciplines.

The Interdisciplinary Studies degree provides a solid background for limitless employment opportunities. Some employment fields include publishing, public health, journalism, writing, business, law, non-profit work, and even new professions that don’t exist yet.

Admission to Clarke University

Meet Our Faculty

When our graduates speak about the Clarke moments that helped shape them, there’s always a professor in the story. That’s because being a faculty member at Clarke University requires a deep passion for educating, encouraging, and empowering students. Here, your professors will know your name. They will push you to develop your full potential, and then they’ll ask for more. And, they’ll be right there to congratulate you when you exceed even your own expectations. Often, it’s a relationship that lasts a lifetime.

Because I earned both a BA and Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Studies, my ability to transition across fields allowed me many experiences. Over the course of my career, I’ve worked as an editor, an HTML programmer, and an environmental educator before starting my university career. Limitless options are available to students and professionals who are able to cross boundaries.
